NEW YORK CITY (PIX11) – More New Yorkers can now get 50% off subway and bus fares thanks to an expansion of the Fair Fares program in next year’s budget, Mayor Eric Adams announced Sunday.
Now, any New Yorker making up to 145% of the federal poverty level will qualify for the program. For example, a family of four would need to make under $53,041 per year combined. For a household of one, the cap is just over $21,800 per year.
